INGREDIENTS (Nutrition)

  • 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 6 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1/2 cup applesauce
  • 1 pound pork loin, sliced and cut into thin strips
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons peanut oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh ginger root
  • 3 cups broccoli florets

What to Drink?

Wine Riesling
Hot Non-Alcoholic Tea

DIRECTIONS

  1. Whisk together the hoisin sauce, brown sugar, soy sauce, and applesauce in a small bowl; set aside.
  2. Combine the pork and cornstarch in a bowl. Mix until the cornstarch evenly coats the pork; set aside.
  3. Heat the peanut oil and sesame oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Cook the pork in three separate batches in the hot oil until no longer pink in the middle, 2 to 3 minutes per batch. Remove pork to a plate lined with paper towels to drain, reserving the oil. Add the ginger to the skillet; cook and stir for 30 seconds. Stir in the broccoli and cook until tender. Return the pork to the skillet and pour in the sauce; toss to coat. Cook until all ingredients are hot.
